[QUOTE="sprint_st, post: 218256, member: 3734"] Do you set up your suspension for a rough railroad crossing??? That surely isn't your predominant factor in straight line riding. My point is that when someone who admittedly states they don't know anything about the mechanics goes out and buys various farkles before setting up their bike properly they shouldn't be making recommendations on handling. If you get most suspension tuners offline they will tell you most riders don't have their stock bike set up correctly to begin with. There are articles after articles on this subject in sport bike magazines and on sport bike lists. If you want to see drastic handling differences, just change tire brands. So if you run off and get that Ohlin which is adjustable for whether you ate a burger or fillet mignon, do you know how to keep it adjusted? Most riders don't, me included. [/QUOTE]
